Pheromone synthesis, CXCVII. Synthesis of the enantiomers of 2-sec- butyl-4,5-dihydrothiazole and (1R,5S,7R)-3,4-dehydro-exo-brevicomin, pheromone components of the male mouse, Mus musculus

Two components [2-sec-butyl-4,5-dihydrothiazole (1) and 3,4-dehydro-exo- brevicomin (2)] of a male-produced pheromone of the mouse Mus musculus have been synthesized in optically active forms. The enantiomers of 1 were obtained with an enantiomeric purity of ca. 92% ee and were found to be readily racemizable. Asymmetric dihydroxylation was employed as the key reaction (15→16) allowing the preparation of (1R,5S,7R)-2 with ca. 94% ee.

Both the enantiomers of the pheromone of the male mouse Mus musculus, exo-7-ethyl-5-methyl-6,8-dioxabicyclooct-3-ene, were synthesized from the enantiomers of tartaric acid.
